I'm not one to have dreams and visions (although I am one of the old men
that Joel or Peter could be talking about). I was mowing the lawn and
realized that "prepping", which is somewhat maligned as a non-faith move,
is really preparing for the soon-coming great harvest. Prepping is just one
of the many ways that the church is building the infrastructure and
machinery getting ready for the fields to be harvested - the combines and
grain bins, if you will (I grew up on a farm in Montana). Church preppers
are the ones believing for the great harvest and getting ready to help,
while "non-preppers" seem to be waiting for God to do everything for them -
whether it is providing for them when the storms come, or taking them out
of the harvest entirely. Bottom line, prepping isn't simply a selfish move
to save one's skin, it is looking forward to staying engaged in the Kingdom
and helping the perishing to step in.

8 Let all the earth fear the LORD: let all the inhabitants of the world
stand in awe of him. 9 For he spake, and it was done; he commanded, and it
stood fast. 10 The LORD bringeth the counsel of the heathen to nought: he
maketh the devices of the people of none effect. 11 The counsel of the LORD
standeth for ever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations. 12 Blessed
is the nation whose God is the LORD; and the people whom he hath chosen for
his own inheritance.
Psalm 33:8-12
